Here are a few of mine...
John Kerry: American soldiers are “terrorizing Iraqi women and children.”
Jack Murtha: American Marines have “killed innocent civilians in cold blood.”
Dick Durban: Things that American Solders had done things to prisoners in their control was like “ Nazis, Soviets in their gulags, or some mad regime — Pol Pot or others — that had no concern for human beings”.
B. Hussein Obama: American Military is "just air raiding villages and killing civilians"
Chuck Schumer: "And let me be clear, the violence in Anbar has gone down despite the surge, not because of the surge. The inability of American soldiers to protect these tribes from al Qaeda said to these tribes we have to fight al Qaeda ourselves. It wasn't that the surge brought peace here. It was that the warlords took peace here, created a temporary peace here. And that is because there was no one else there protecting."

Please let me know if there are any that I have missed. We don't need to ever forget what the Dems have said...

All of those quotes are the honest truth. This war is completely unnecessary and has brutalized the people of Iraq. The entire sordid affair has been one war crime after another. Our soldiers have been sent on a mission that is complete bs, and was never planned well, and has never had clear objectives. Supporting the troops means opposing the bush administration and the military bureaucracy.

To be a sausage, or to no longer be a sausage. that's the question. whether tis nobler to go through the slings and arrows of too lots sausage seasoning or, via opposing, consume them and get heartburn. Oh, that this too, too sullied sausage might soften and thaw and form itself right into a sausage patty." Sausaglet, Act one million - Sausage's soliloquy.

I was wrong to vote for this war. Unfortunately, I'll have to live with that forever. And the lesson I learned from it is to put more faith in my own judgment.

Every nation has to either be with us, or against us. Those who harbor terrorists, or who finance them, are going to pay a price.
I'm not going to have some reporters pawing through our papers. We are the president.
We're going to take things away from you on behalf of the common good.
"If you want to remain on this detail, get your a** over here and grab those bags." (To an agent who wanted to keep his hands free in case of a security threat.)

All of the above are from Hillary Clinton.

Hillary Clinton:

'We will take from you for the common good'
"I have to confess that it's crossed my mind that you could not be a Republican and a Christian."
"God bless the America we are trying to create."

“Who is going to find out? These women are trash. Nobody’s going to believe them.” –on Bill Clinton’s bimbo eruptions
“If I didn’t kick his *** every day, he wouldn’t be worth anything.”
"I suppose I could have stayed home and baked cookies and had teas, but what I decided to do was to fulfill my profession which I entered before my husband was in public life."
"I have said that I'm not running and I'm having a great time being pres — being a first-term senator." —on her presidential ambitions
"I'm not going to have some reporters pawing through our papers. We are the president"
The challenge now is to practice politics as the art of making what appears to be impossible, possible.
I'm not some Tammy Wynette standing by my man
In the Bible it says they asked Jesus how many times you should forgive, and he said 70 times 7. Well, I want you all to know that I'm keeping a chart.
Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, and Al Gore were in an airplane that crashed. They're up in heaven, and God's sitting on the great white throne. God addresses Al first.
"Al, what do you believe in?"
Al replies, "Well, I believe that the combustion engine is evil and that we need to save the world from CFCs and that if any more freon is used, the whole earth will become a greenhouse and we'll all die."
God thinks for a second and says "Okay, I can live with that. Come and sit at my left."
God then addresses Bill. "Bill, what do you believe in?"
Bill replies, "Well, I believe in power to the people. I think people should be able to make their own choices about things and that no one should ever be able to tell someone else what to do. I also believe in feeling people's pain."
God thinks for a second and says "Okay, that sounds good. Come and sit at my right."
God then address Hillary. "Hillary, what do you believe in?"
"I believe you're in my chair."

I don't take stock in Democratic or Republican leaders' quotes. I only look at their actions.
We put way too much in rhetoric (which is mostly twisted and spun in the way that we want to interpret it... like you just did in your question).
I don't work for any party... it looks like you do for the Republican party and I feel sorry for you because you are doing it for free. A smart man would at least ask for a nominal fee for your service. Afterall, they reward their wealthy contributors for just sending them money; you ahould be compensated for your time and work.

- James D. Watson, 79, “lifelong Democrat” and co-discoverer of the DNA helix and winner of the 1962 Nobel Prize in medicine, told the Sunday Times of London that he was "inherently gloomy about the prospect of Africa" because "all our social policies are based on the fact that their intelligence is the same as ours — whereas all the testing says not really." He recognized that the prevailing belief was that all human groups are equal, but that "people who have to deal with black employees find this not true."
“I hope his wife feeds him lots of eggs and butter and he dies early like many black men do, of heart disease.”
Liberal USA Today columnist Julianne Malveaux on Clarence Thomas
“Blacks and Hispanics were too busy eating watermelons and tacos to read the fine print on the phony insurance policies.”
Mike Wallace, of 60 Minutes fame
- Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said last year that the Supreme Court's lone black member was "an embarrassment to the court.”
“If there is justice, he’ll get AIDS, or one of his grandchildren will get it.”
NPR’s Nina Totenberg on Jesse Helms, wishing a disease on someone – or his innocent grandchildren – that I wouldn’t want my worst enemy to have.
“Our job is to give people not what they want, but what we decide they ought to have.”
Former CBS News president Richard Salant.
"In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including al Qaeda members .. It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons." - Sen. Hillary Clinton (D, NY), Oct 10, 2002
"The last UN weapons inspectors left Iraq in October of 1998. We are confident that Saddam Hussein retains some stockpiles of chemical and biological weapons, and that he has since embarked on a crash course to build up his chemical and biological warfare capabilities. Intelligence reports indicate that he is seeking nuclear weapons..." - Sen. Robert Byrd (D, WV), Oct. 3, 2002
"There is unmistakable evidence that Saddam Hussein is working aggressively to develop nuclear weapons and will likely have nuclear weapons within the next five years ... We also should remember we have always underestimated the progress Saddam has made in development of weapons of mass destruction."
- Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D, WV), Oct 10, 2002
"He has systematically violated, over the course of the past 11 years, every significant UN resolution that has demanded that he disarm and destroy his chemical and biological weapons, and any nuclear capacity. This he has refused to do" Rep. - Henry Waxman (D, CA), Oct. 10, 2002
"We are in possession of what I think to be compelling evidence that Saddam Hussein has, and has had for a number of years, a developing capacity for the production and storage of weapons of mass destruction." - Sen. Bob Graham (D, FL), Dec. 8, 2002
"Americans need to really understand the gravity and legitimacy of what is happening with Saddam Hussein. He has been given every opportunity in the world to comply. The president does not control the schedule of UNSCOM. The president did not withdraw the UNSCOM inspectors. And the president did not, obviously, cut a deal with Saddam Hussein to do this at this moment. Saddam Hussein has not complied. Saddam Hussein is pursuing a program to build weapons of mass destruction." (Sen. John Kerry, Press Conference, 12/16/98)
"Why is Saddam Hussein pursuing weapons that most nations have agreed to limit or give up? Why is Saddam Hussein guilty of breaking his own cease-fire agreement with the international community? Why is Saddam Hussein attempting to develop nuclear weapons when most nations don’t even try, and responsible nations that have them attempt to limit their potential for disaster? Why did Saddam Hussein threaten and provoke? Why does he develop missiles that exceed allowable limits? Why did Saddam Hussein lie and deceive the inspection teams previously? Why did Saddam Hussein not account for all of the weapons of mass destruction which UNSCOM identified? Why is he seeking to develop unmanned airborne vehicles for delivery of biological agents? Does he do all of these things because he wants to live by international standards of behavior? Because he respects international law? Because he is a nice guy underneath it all and the world should trust him?" (Sen. John Kerry, Congressional Record, 10/9/02, p. S10171
"I will be voting to give the President of the United States the authority to use force-- if necessary-- to disarm Saddam Hussein because I believe that a deadly arsenal of weapons of mass destruction in his hands is a real and grave threat to our security." - Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Oct. 9, 2002
